     The bit of the IIgs workstation software that does the indicator
arrows on the SHR screen (and an inverse blinking '*' on 40/80 col. text)
is in the AppleShare FST. Any time it sends a write packet or read request
packet, it flashes. Printing and other such bits of the GS AppleTalk
implementation don't do this, only the FST.
